A picture worth a thousand words?: Oscar Micheaux and his mimetic contributions to African American social uplift
Original language description
This paper traces the ideological collusion of African American literature and film at the turn of the 20th century, with a particular focus on the voluminous oeuvre of Oscar Micheaux. The paper explores various ways in which the silent films and early talkies were used, with overt or covert intent, as ideological leverage towards the social uplift of the African American community.
